The case of one explanatory variable is called simple linear regression. In this discussion we will be going over simple linear regression (meaning a linear/straight line). You may have seen this before on your graphic […]

Intro to IPC | Sockets

Sockets are defined as follows (from wikipedia): A network socket is an endpoint of an inter-process communication flow across a computer network. In other words, sockets are similar to pipes, but capable of network connections (i.e. communication across computers). As you can see each process is on a separate computer, the data then travels through the network to another computer and to […]

Intro to IPC | Interprocess Communication

Interprocess communication is defined as follows on Wikipedia: In computing, inter-process communication (IPC) is a set of methods for the exchange of data among multiple threads in one or more processes. Processes may be running on one or more computers connected by a network. More or less it is exactly what you would expect, the transfer of data between processes. This may […]
